Decided to convert my 3.4 C2 996 to a track day car and I need your collective nous and experience in helping me out. The car will do 5-6 trackdays a year, but it needs to be streetable for the occasional Sunday drive. I have experience of trackdays, and I am also tracking other cars at the moment
My chosen spec (so far):
- Ohlins R&T + full suspension refresh
- Brembo discs, pagid RS29
- X51 baffles
- upgraded radiators
- SW motosports half cage
- I am keeping the 17in stock wheels with PS2 at the moment, intentionally. I might upgrade later
- seats, harnesses etc, how much of the interior to remove, to be decided
9e advised against a deep sump on the basis that it will sit too low.
Now, to my questions:
- Harness: where do people mount the left side strap (i.e. where the buckle is on stock seats). GT3 recaros seem to be bolted on the side seat mounts but are there any better options?
-Steering wheel: does the deep dish wheel option (e.g. momo mod.07) gives a better driving position or will a flat steering work as well.
- Low temp thermostats, 3rd radiators?
- Camber plates?
- External oil cooler?
- Any other essentials i missed.
Finally, I know that the engine might grenade at some point, but i would like to put this aside for the purposes of this thread.
